Diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPL) is one of the most challenging fields in early lung cancer diagnosis. Despite novel techniques and new approaches to the periphery of the lung, almost 25% of PPL remains undiagnosed. Virtual bronchoscopy navigation (VBN) potentially allows to sample PPL previously not reachable with conventional bronchoscopy. In this preliminary report, we described nine cases of PPL (in which conventional bronchoscopy did not reach the lesion) sampled with VBN, from which we obtained a diagnosis in seven out of nine cases (77.8%), consistent with other reported results in literature. More large-scale data are needed to whether VBN can increase diagnostic yield (DY) of PPL.

“…There is still a very small number of studies available. A diagnostic yield of up to 85% has been reported [ 12 , 14 , 15 ]. However, real-world data using navigation-guided bronchoscopy showed a significantly lower diagnostic yield in comparison with the early studies [ 13 ].…”

Surgical resection is still the standard treatment for early-stage lung cancer. A multimodal treatment consisting of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and/or immunotherapy is advised for more advanced disease stages (stages IIb, III and IV). The role of surgery in these stages is limited to very specific indications. Regional treatment techniques are being introduced at a high speed because of improved technology and their possible advantages over traditional surgery. This review includes an overview of established and promising innovative invasive loco-regional techniques stratified based on the route of administration, including endobronchial, endovascular and transthoracic routes, a discussion of the results for each method, and an overview of their implementation and effectiveness.

Виртуальная бронхоскопия позволяет получить информацию о внутренней поверхности трахеи и бронхов, выявить сужение или дилатацию просвета бронхов диаметром 2 мм и более, определиться с уровнем и степенью выраженности изменений, оценить состояние бронха дистальнее уровня стеноза [8,9]. Недостатком виртуальной бронхоскопии является отсутствие возможности оценки состояния слизистой оболочки и подслизистого слоя трахеобронхиального дерева, получить материал для последующего исследования [10].…”

Determining the nature of nodular alternations in the lungs still remains an urgent problem in oncology, pulmonology, and radiology. In some cases, the final diagnosis can be established only on the basis of studying the material obtained during bronchobiopsy, transthoracic biopsy, and surgical treatment. Bronchobiopsy is the first stage of minimally invasive diagnostics towards detecting the nature of nodular changes in the lung tissue, the effectiveness of which depends on preliminary navigation to the region of interest using computed tomography (CT). The article presents five clinical cases demonstrating the use of CT navigation technology for performing bronchobiopsy in patients with peripheral pulmonary nodules.
